looks great, with that fitment I'm really starting to consider some 20x10.5 ET 35 that I can get for a great price and run 275-40-20

And you could bump to 285/40 later on 👍🏼

Hi Mops, you think I’ll have to run a spacer at all? Curious if it will hit the knuckle or the rear suspension. Thanks

Nope you’ll be totally good as-is.

Is there any difference wheel spec wise between a B9 Q5 & SQ5? Currently running OEM RS5 wheels on my Q5 for the winter, but will be getting a set spec’d from BC once the weather gets nice. It’s currently dropped on H&R springs.

No difference at all other than you’ll get a bit more concavity due to the smaller caliper. Hit me up when ready and we’ll work through it.

Anybody happen to know the wheel/tire specs on this setup?

Looking for advice. Have a 2024 SQ5 and hate the 20" wheels. I'd like to stay oem, and found some I like on ebay, but the offset is 33, and Audi recommends 37-41. Will an offset difference of 4mm really make a difference? The seller said the wheels came off of a 2020 SQ5.

Post the ebay link if you will. Should be totally fine, but would like more detail.

Totally fine. They’ll fit a bit better too.

Ooooo interesting- did you indicate they’ll do custom offsets too on instagram?

Stumbled upon a set of these and wondering if they'd fit my 23' SQ5.

If so, what tire profile would work best?

They'll work just fine. You'll want to run a 265/35/22. Depending on your suspension, they could poke a out bit. Maybe 5mm at most.

I've got some 21x9.5 Q7 wheels freshly powered coated if you're interested?

21x9.5 Q7 wheels, powdercoated in Acura silver, Conti 265/40 DWS06 tires, 5mm front and 10mm rear spacers, OEM dynamic center caps. OBDELEVEN show mode. TGK lowering links going on next weekend

I’ve got a set of OE SQ7 22’s, OE SQ7 21’s too.

I’ve tested both on my sq5 and they work

Love how she sits in show mode! I've read a few places the system has issues airing up... any issues you've encountered? TIA

I only tried it once for the pic. Only issue I had was I had to "deactivate showmode" before I could "activate showmode", then "deactivate" again. So I used an extra 10 credits.

Dammit, just when I’ve thought I’ve settled on the next wheel. Does the width and offset affect the concavity of these or are the faces all the same?

21x9.5 with a lower offset for concavity in satin bronze would be epic. Plotting summer wheels for this spring. Vorsteiners are becoming her winter wheels after this season.

HA! There are 3 profiles. In 21", the best spec for concave is 21x10 ET29, which is face 2. In 9.5, there aren't an options, but there are face 1 21x9 options. We could always stagger.

How easy was it to take off those little black fender pieces on all four corners? Is there a post? If there is I can’t find it! Also will it leave marks on the underside painted surfaces?

I ended up finding a SQ5 on Reddit with that exact spec and the profile 2 isn’t concave enough to sway me from the TD’s. We just posted our ACB % so will hit you up in March ;)

Hello AZ,

New to the B9 SQ5. So I found out the hard way that 265/45/21 wont fit the SQ5. Hits the top knuckle. Question is if I run spacers 20mm think that would move out enough t clear or is it a no go with 45 vs 40? Curious before I start the return process and order new ones.

Thank you

I don't know how we could say for sure. But the tires are far too tall, and could cause issues with your ABS and traction control. I would for sure swap them out.

[sternalot]

I just want to say that this whole thread is inspiring.

It has been a while since I've been on these forums. My last Audi was now three cars ago (save my wife's Q5 we bought last year). Gearing up for kiddo one and planning to drop my M2C for a set of rings. Feel like we need a Q7/8, but would love to make this work. Feels too small with a kid (with all their extras), dog, and bags (of course the golf bag which goes everywhere) for the few 6-7 hour drives we do each year. It sure is tempting though.

Looking at another set of Vossen HF-5 but this time in 21x10 et 30

Worried about the fronts having too much poke. Anyone else running the same specs?

Guessing 285/35 is the tire to go with?

Factory air ride no plans to go lower.

First set was 21x9 et 32 and I loved the way they fit.

The new set will position 14mm outboard from the first set. I don't think you'll be happy with that.

Hello. I'm looking at a set of Vossens, 21x10.5 ET30. Will these fit a stock Q5 b9.5? and if so, any good tire brand and size recommendations?

Thanks!

[CreoSTi]

Glad I'm on 19s right now (and airing up the suspension) with all the potholes showing up from the rain we've been having...
